Among the strongman influences on Trump, don't underestimate Argentina's Perón. Crowd-pleasing yet grossly fiscally irresponsible gestures are just his kind of thing.

No, if DOGE/Elon/Trump are cutting essential federal services illegally, and our Congress won’t stop them, I expect my taxes to go down. No taxation without representation. DOGE is illegal, and is stealing tax funded services. No more tax revenue.
The problem with that headline is that he won’t be using DOGE savings. He’ll be pretending it’s DOGE savings while the US government borrows more money so he can buy popularity.
I’ve heard elsewhere that at least one staffer admired Perón and I can’t believe the insanity. Just punching yourself in the nuts for no reason, national self-destruction.
And that’s before we get to the Trump Evita thing.
